An old JB Weld repair on my current 53 Hornet TwinH intake manifold finally gave out. Heard a mild hissing noise today following engine warm up. While the car is put away for the winter, I usually start it up every 2 weeks or so during storage. I am tempted to apply more JB Weld to the injury site (located on the side of the dome under front carb) but thought I would ask you guys about getting hold of a replacement intake manifold. Mine is stamped 307093. Does anyone have a spare unit for a fair price? Thanks very much and best wishes. ArtS.

  • If you can not find a replacment you could weld it? Did this on an old exhaust manafold once and it did the trick? Mig....

    the 307093 number will be same on the hornet and wasp twin H, as this is the casting number not the final part number. center distance of the studs is the difference between the two.

    Thanks for the responses thus far. Just to clarify based on Nick's comment, I need an intake manifold with the wide-stud arrangement to fit a pair of 968S carbs. ArtS
